Returns to Leipzig
Geertruida returned to RB Leipzig following the conclusion of his loan spell with Sunderland.
Analysis: Geertruida spent the 2025-26 season on loan with Sunderland, where he gained regular first-team experience before returning to his parent club. The defender will now rejoin Leipzig for preseason preparations while his future remains unresolved. Whether he earns a role in the Bundesliga side's plans or pursues another move in the coming weeks remains to be seen.
Could stay at Sunderland
Geertruida remains in discussions with Sunderland over his future at the club, according to Sunderland.
Analysis: Geertruida earned a World Cup call-up to the Netherlands squad as a replacement for the injured Jurrien Timber, a reward for a strong season on Wearside in which his versatility at right-back and center-back made him a valuable asset. The defender's future club destination remains undecided, with Sunderland continuing talks in hopes of keeping him beyond the current campaign.
